If some flowers are not pollinated by insects but by wind Do you think such flowers are as attractive as insect-pollinated ones?

Wind-pollinated flowers tend to be less showy and colorful compared to insect-pollinated flowers which are often brightly colored and fragrant to attract insects. However, the structure of wind-pollinated flowers is specialized for efficient wind dispersal of pollen, which is important for their reproduction. So, while they may not be as visually attractive to us, they are still well-adapted for their method of pollination.

Insect-pollinated flowers can also be pollinated by wind why?

Insect-pollinated flowers may still be pollinated by wind as a backup method to ensure successful pollination in case insect activity is limited. Wind can help transfer pollen between flowers when insects are scarce or when weather conditions are unfavorable for insect pollination. This redundancy increases the chances of successful pollination and seed production for the plant.

Is a buttercup flower a wind or insect pollinated plant?

It's bright and showy, and even has little nectar ducts under its petals, so insect-pollinated. Wind-pollinated plants generally don't have flowers, or the flowers are very small and inconspicuous, like those of grass. Wind-pollinated plants also make far more pollen (try tapping a pine tree or reed in spring) because the wind does not take it directly to its destination, much of it will be lost. With insects there's a fair chance the little there is will reach another flower of the same species.

How can you tell if your flower has been pollinated by the wind or by insect?

What is the different in pollen at wind and insect pollination?

The answer is really pretty simple. Flowers that are pollinated by insects are pollinated by insects going from one flower to an other, carrying pollen from one flower to the next. Wind pollination is caused by the wind carrying pollen from one flower to an other one.Usually insect pollinated flowers have large, brightly colored petals also sweet scented nectaries at the base of the petals - some flowers may look bland but when viewed under ultra violet or infrared light are very conspicuous.The Stamen is short, with anthers firmly attached inside the flower. The Stigma is sticky and is located on the inside of the flower. Additionally the pollen grain are produced in small amounts, it is rough/ spiky and its large. This features are used to attract insects for pollination. The pollen grains are sticky and rough so it clings onto the insect's body. The Stigma is also sticky so the pollen grains remains in place and wont get carried away by the wind currents.Many, but not all dicotyledonous flowers are insect pollinated.Wind pollinated flowers are small and inconspicuous. Sometimes green or brown in color and has no scent or nectaries (such as the flowers of grass plants).The Stamen has long filaments, with anthers that hang outside the flower. The Stigma is large, branched and feathery. The pollen grains are produced in large amounts, its smooth and light hence it can be carried away by the gentlest of wind currents.Many, but not all monocotyledonous flowers and cone producing gymnosperms are wind pollinated.
